Fruit and Vegetable Cold Storage Temperature Chart

Check the following storage temperature for common fruit and vegetable, hope it can help with your picking of food cold storage.

How to Save Energy in Fruit and Vegetable Cold Storage

Prevent the impurities from entering the refrigeration system.

The refrigeration system is a sealed and circulating system, the refrigerant circulating in the system must be clean, with no impurities.

But in the reality refrigeration system, it’s impossible to get them completely clean refrigerants, this should be related to the working condition and the filling refrigerant which is not so clean.

The impurities I mentioned include refrigerant oil, air, water, welding slag, and so on. A perfect design and installation method will greatly avoid those problems, especially the solder-free connection is a good choice.

Remove the dirt and frost on the heat exchange equipment in time to improve the heat transfer efficiency.

When the evaporator unit works for some time, it will be some frost on the coil, sometimes even will form the ice.

And the frost and ice will increase the heat transfer resistance and reduce the heat transfer effect, affect the cooling speed, then increase the start-up time and power consumption. So make sure defrosting of the evaporator in time.

Close the food cold storage door tightly, make sure no cold air loss.

The cold storage door is the throat of the cold storage room, the workers enter and exit, the goods enter and exit all need to open and close it.

This will exit the heat exchange situation for cold and hot air inevitably, the hot air will enter into the cold room by opening the cold room door, this not only causes the heat increase and cold room temperature increase but also cause the moisture exchange which will cause the frost for the evaporator, the temperature and humidity changes for cold storage room will affect the product storage function.

So it is very important to control the food cold storage door, reduce the opening times and opening time, close the cold room door quickly when entering and exiting.

Use a cotton curtain or soft PVC curtain inside of the cold storage door will be a good choice, it will be better if you install a high-efficiency air curtain that should be installed outside of the cold storage door, make sure it works well.

Do the best food cold storage lighting control.

The lighting for food cold storage is not only consumed electricity but also increases the heat for the cold storage room.

Therefore, the lighting should be settled very reasonably, you can set it to control in groups from the front, middle, and back. It should minimize the number and time for turning the lights when workers entering in the cold storage room, and ensure turn off the lights when leaving.

Stock the goods reasonably and improve cold storage utilization.

The using rate for cold storage room directly affects the economic benefits for the cold storage, if the utilization rate is low, the cold consumption per unit of goods increases, then the cost increase.

So for improving the utilization rate for the cold storage room, you can use strong packaging or use the shelves to store more goods;

When there is empty space for the cold storage room, and the storage requirements are the same or similar for goods, you can mixed storage them for a short time.

Ensure good ventilation.

Fruits and vegetables are still living organisms after they are harvested, they are still constantly metabolized during storage, so it will need regular ventilation window when storing the fruits and vegetables.

Ventilation is to exchange the fresh air from outside of the cold storage to discharge the dirty air inside of the cold storage room.

But when the temperature of the outside air is too high, the energy loss will be very big.

So when you do the ventilation process, choose a similar temperature for inside and outside of the cold storage room.

The number of ventilation and the time for each ventilation should be determined according to the types and requirements of the stored goods.

Good maintenance of insulation and moisture-proof layer.

The performance and design requirements for thermal insulation should be strictly ensured, especially for the loose thermal insulation materials.

After a period of time, some unfilled areas will slowly fill and sink, this will cause the vacancies in the upper part of wall insulation, so please pay attention to this situation and inspect it regularly;

The insulation material will also become damp due to the damage of the moisture-proof layer or the protective layer, this will cause the loss of the heat insulation performance, so also need to pay attention to the inspect and repair for damped insulation material, some may be dried and filled it back.

How to Install the Food Cold Storage

In this part, you can see the notices to install the food cold storage panel and the refrigeration equipment, and we made a video to show you how to install the food cold storage panel quickly and correctly.

So let me explain the notices for two parts: cold room panel and refrigeration equipment.

Food Cold Storage Panel Installation:

First of all, the installation order can not be reversed, if you install them with a wrong order, it will cause many problems, maybe more time to correct it, maybe just install them wrong and have a bad cooling function.

So please follow these rules to install the cold storage panel:

if there is a cold storage bottom plate, install the bottom plate first, then install the cold storage corner plate and cold storage wall panel, finally install the cold storage top plate.

When installing the cold storage, splice the cold storage board one by one in order and then lock the hooks(check the following video for better checking).

After install, the cold storage body, seal the joints between each cold storage plate with the special sealant.

Use the level to balance the door frame when installing the cold storage door, because the inclination of the cold room door will directly affect the insulation effect of the cold storage.

Refrigeration Equipment Installation:

It is very important to fix the equipment firmly when install the refrigeration equipment, the first fixation of the refrigeration equipment is especially important because if you didn’t fix it well for the first time, it will be a risk for future operation, it may cause the loosen situation which will reduce the service life for refrigeration equipment.

You must choose the distance between the refrigeration equipment that is installed inside and outside of the cold storage when you do the installation of refrigeration equipment.

The closer the distance, the better the cooling effect. When you choose the best installation point for the internal and external equipment, it’s better to have a shelter for the outside equipment or you can directly choose the box type condensing units.

How to Store the Fruits and Vegetables in Food Cold Storage

Increase the value of the fruits and vegetables and increase the income, that’s why many people building the food cold storage.

The food cold storage can fulfill their needs for a long time storing the goods, and keep the fruits and vegetables fresh. Then in the off-season, they can sell at a very good price.

So improving the storage effect is what you need, then it’s very necessary to pay attention to the following notes for fruits and vegetables cold storage.

Preparation of the fruits and vegetables before storage.

A: Before the fruits and vegetables are put into the food cold storage, the food clod storage should be cleaned and disinfected with chemicals to thoroughly kill all kinds of diseases, pests, and microorganisms hidden in the cold storage.

Pre-cooling the fruits and vegetables before they enter into food cold storage, it’s better to cool them in time at the place where the raw material is produced, to dissipate the heat that inside of the fruits and vegetables.

Because this can remove the heat from the field, reduce the breathing intensity, reduce the occurrence of physiological diseases, and reduce the heat load of the refrigeration system.

The pre-cooling measures for fruits and vegetables include natural cooling, water cooling, ice cooling, ventilation cooling, and vacuum cooling, etc.

But the best way to keep the pre-cooling temperature of the fruits and vegetables close to the storage temperature in the cold room.

B: Make sure to select the fruits and vegetables before they are put into storage.

Pick out the fruits and vegetables with mechanical damage and insect damage, separate the fruits and vegetables for different maturity levels.

Because fruits and vegetables contain a lot of water and nutrients, they are a good medium for microbial life, fruits and vegetables will soon rot and deteriorate if they are contaminated by the microorganisms.

C: Fruits and vegetables of different maturity levels should not be mixed and preserved. Because more mature fruits and vegetables will become overripe after a period of preservation.

Its character is: the fruit body becomes soft and is about to begin to rot. After some fruits and vegetables are selected, those fruits of good quality and long storage life should be wrapped in paper one by one and packed in boxes or baskets.

The paper you will use for wrapping the fruits and vegetables should not be too hard or too thin, or it will damage the fruits or can’t protect them well.

It’s better to use paper that has been treated with chemicals that have no adverse effects on fruits and vegetables.

For the fruits that have the handle, please notice that does not press the handle on the fruit bodies, so as not to break the peel of other fruits. Please pay attention to pick the fruits with care to prevent any damage to the fruit body.

Product storage:

Put the fruits and vegetables into storage in time after pre-cooling.

A: Please control the daily cold storage volume of the fruit and vegetable, generally it is better to control it at around 20% of the storage capacity.

Because the storage volume is too large for one time, the temperature reduces very slowly, which will have a negative impact on the storage effect.

When fruits and vegetables are put into the food cold storage room, please make sure to put them in order, reasonable storage will make full use of the food cold storage space, and it will be good for the air circulation between the products.

But for the space near the outlet of the evaporator, please do not store the fruits and vegetables, it’s better not to put the products within 2m distance with the outlet of the evaporator, to prevent the products are damaged by the cold wind.

B: Different types of fruits and vegetables should be stored at their perfect temperatures, do not store the products at inappropriate temperatures.

Because different types of fruits and vegetables have different abilities to withstand the low temperatures.

The unsuitable low temperature and freezing will affect the normal physiological functions of the fruits and causing changes in flavor quality or the production of physiological diseases.

Food Cold Storage period management:

After the goods enter the cold storage room, the storage temperature should be adjusted to the appropriate temperature, avoid big temperature fluctuation.

The temperature of each part in the cold storage room should be even to prevent the blind spots of overcooling or overheating.

The temperature in the food cold storage can be controlled by the flow and vaporization rate of the refrigerant in the evaporation system, and pay attention to defrost the evaporation tube in time.

For the food cold storage that stored the fruits and vegetables, it’s better to keep the relative humidity at 80%-90%.

If the humidity is too low, you can use some methods to increase the humidity, such as ground watering, spraying, wet sawdust and covering wet cattail bales, and so on;

If the humidity is too high, you can use a moisture absorber or lime dusting to reduce the humidity in the cold storage.

During the period of food cold storage, you suppose to pay attention to the ventilation to eliminate excessive CO2 and other harmful gas substances.

Ventilation time is commonly selected in the morning when the temperature is low.

It is not suitable to choose the rainy and foggy days because the outside humidity is too high.

The refrigeration equipment should be operated while ventilating, to slow down the changes in temperature and humidity.

In addition, fruits and vegetables should be checked regularly during the cold storage period, to test the respiratory strength, hardness, and soluble solid content, so as to well know the dynamic changes of fruits and vegetables during storage, then to deal with the problems in time.

Good delivery:

Fruits and vegetables should be delivered promptly when their delivery time is ready. Follow the principle: the earlier for entering, the earlier for delivery, make sure the freshness of the goods.

The fruits and vegetables stored in the cold storage room should be warmed up slowly before leaving the food cold storage, and it is perfect to rise 1 degree every 2-3 hours to prevent condensation due to the excessive heating.

Some customers will also choose to build a cold room as the pre-stock room, cause sometimes you don’t deliver the goods for the whole cold storage in one time, but the cold storage room should keep the low temperature for fresh.

When the temperature of the food cold storage rises to 2-3 degrees difference from the outside temperature, you can take out the products.

Do you have a guarantee for food cold storage?

Yes, for the whole refrigeration equipment, we have a 1-year guarantee, for compressor and main parts, that will be longer, you can contact us for details.

The refrigeration condensing units of food cold storage does not install the vibration device, or the vibration reduction effect is bad?

According to the installation specifications, the vibration absorber should be installed.

Because the vibration damping is not standardized or there is no damping measure, the refrigeration condensing unit will vibrate violently, which may easily cause damage to refrigeration equipment or the pipelines.

Maintenance of the condensing unit​ of food condensing unit?

Please make sure to change the refrigerant oil and filter drier regularly.

Replenish the refrigerants as it’s needed. The condenser should be cleaned at any time and kept clean to avoid any dust, sand, or flying debris, which all will affect the cooling function.

Some customers think that as long as the lubricating oil has no impurities, it can continue to be used, even though it has been used for more than two years, no need to be replaced. But this is obviously wrong after the lubricating oil has been running for a long time under high temperature in the refrigeration system, its performance may have been changed, and it can no longer play the role of lubrication.

If still, you don’t change it, it will cause the operating temperature to increase of condensing units, even will damage the condensing units.

There is no oil return bend or bad oil return bend in the refrigeration pipeline of food cold storage?

When the pipeline conveying refrigerant is turned from the lateral direction to the upward bend, you must make a small bend to hang down first, then upwards, which is the U bend, so that the pipeline is qualified if it goes upward.

It can not be turned into a 90 degree upward directly.

Otherwise, the oil in the refrigeration system will not be able to return to the compressor very well, and a large amount of oil will be deposited in the air cooler, which will make the air cooler and the entire refrigeration system can’t work properly, even will damage the condensing unit and air cooler.

The pipe connection of the refrigeration system is not balanced?

When the pipeline of the condensing unit is connected to the multiple compressors (rack condensing unit), in order to distribute the oil return to each compressor in a balanced manner, the position of the main pipeline must be set to the middle place of multiple compressors, then set some branch pipes to both sides, which ensure the oil return to each branch pipes of compressors.

Moreover, each branch pipe should be equipped with valves to adjust the oil return.

If this is not the case and set many downward branch pipes from different parts of the main pipeline to connect to multiple compressors, it will cause an unbalanced oil return situation, the first oil return is always the most full, and the latter one oil return gradually decreases in turn.

In this way, it may cause the operation problem for the first compressor, huge vibration, excessive oil pressure, overheating of the condensing unit, and all these possibilities will cause damage for condensing units, such as compressor cylinder flushing or locking.

No insulation for the pipeline of food cold storage?

If there is no insulation material, the cold pipeline will be frosted at the ambient temperature, in this way, it will affect the cooling function of the condensing units, increase the load of the compressor, and then make the condensing units operates in a super-intensive situation, this will cause the reducing of condensing unit service life.

The installation environment and maintenance of the air cooler of food cold storage?

The position and environment of the air cooler inside the food cold storage will affect its operation.

Generally, the air cooler near the food cold storage door is very easy for condensing and frosting.

Because it’s the environment is very near the doorway, when the cold room door opens, the hot air outside will enter into cold storage, the condensation and frost, even ice phenomenon will occur when the hot air encounters with air cooler.

Although the air cooler can automatically heat and defrost at regular intervals.

But if you open the door too frequently and the opening time is too long, then the time for entering hot air is obvious and the quantity for entering hot air is large, which will affect the air cooler defrosting function.

Because the defrosting time of the air cooler can not be too long, otherwise the cooling time will be relatively shortened, the cooling function will be not that well, which will directly affect the storage temperature.

So make sure do not open the food cold storage door two frequently and for too long time.

The ambient temperature for the condenser of food cold storage?

The condenser should be installed outside of the food cold storage room, which is commonly installed on the roof of the building or beside the sidewall of cold storage.

So when the ambient temperature is very high, like in summer, the temperature of the condenser itself has a very high temperature, which will increase the operating pressure of the condensing units.

So if your place has a long time for high temperature, it’s better to build a shelter for the condensing units to block the sun and reduce the temperature of the condenser to reduce the pressure of the units, then it will have a good function for protecting the condensing units, then it ensures the suitable temperature for food cold storage.

Of course, if you design the condensing unit capacity is very sufficient to ensure the food cold storage temperature, you can ignore this, and no need to build this shelter.

Food cold storage temperature and food cold storage door?

The area of the cold storage room, the amount of inventory, how many doors are opened, the time and frequency of opening and closing of the food cold storage doors, the frequency of inventory in and out, are all the factors to affect the temperature of the food cold storage.

Normally the food cold storage door should not be opened and closed more than 8 times a day.

If you open and close the food cold storage door in unlimited times, the mechanical parts and the frame insulation material of the automatic door of the food cold storage will accelerate the wear and tear, and the electrical components are more easily to have problems.

If the food cold storage area is large but has fewer automatic doors, then each automatic door will be opened and closed many times, this will increase the mechanical burden for the food cold storage door, which will cause the door failures frequently and you need to repair the spare parts for cold room very often.

In this case, it will increase the maintenance workload and timeliness.

However, once the food old storage door fails and can not be opened in time, it will affect the incoming and outgoing goods;

Or if the food cold storage door can not be closed in time, it will make the temperature increasing of the cold storage, if it’s for a long time, it will damage the stored products.

So the design and construction of the food cold storage room and the setting, numbers of cold storage doors are should be matched, you need to consider the inventory of the food cold storage room, and the frequency of opening and closing of the cold storage door comprehensively arranged.

So when you use the food cold storage, please make sure use it reasonably according to the design specifications, and please do not ignore the design conditions and the actual using conditions of the facility, blindly increase the inventory and increase the turnover of the goods, and exceed the normal load and bearing capacity of the food cold storage and cooling equipment. Otherwise, many problems will occur.

The fire safety issues of cold storage room?

The temperature of food cold storage is normally around minus 20 degrees.

It is not suitable for installing the fire sprinkler system because of the low ambient temperature.

Therefore, you should pay more attention to fire prevention in food cold storage.

Although the ambient temperature in the food cold storage is very low, if a fire occurs, there are still some combustibles in the food cold storage, especially the inventory goods are often packed in cartons and wooden boxes, which is very easy to burn.

Therefore, the food cold storage also has a big risk for fire, please make sure the fireworks must be strictly prohibited in the food cold storage.

At the same time, the air cooler and its wire box, power wire, electric heating tube, and other parts that need to charged with electricity, all have the risk for fire, please make sure to check them frequently and eliminate the fire hazards.
